Professional Reviews

Antonio Galloni

AG 92

"The NV (2019) Extra Brut Les Prémices is a heady Champagne. Apricot, ginger, pastry, spice and tangerine peel confer an exotic flair, a theme that is ever-present. Rich and generous, with tons of textural presence, the 2019 is striking in its beauty." -Vinous

Robert Parker

RP 91

"Based on the 2019 vintage and disgorged this year with one gram per liter dosage, Egly's NV Brut Les Pr,mices offers up attractive aromas of orchard and stone fruits mingled with fresh bread and honeysuckle. Medium-bodied, fleshy and racy, with bright acids, a pretty mousse and a saline finish, it's the finest rendition of this new cuvee to date."

Jancis Robinson

"I just loved this wine. It's one of those wines about which I don't want to talk about flavours or acidity or bubble size or length. It's a wine that feels like walking with a friend on a warm day across the fields and along quiet paths. It's a wine that is comforting, like a hand pressed to your hand just when you need contact. It's a wine that is bright and yellow splashed like the dandelions on the side of the path, and it's lacy and elegant and floral snowflakes like the cow parsley frothing from the hedgerows. It has the golden warmth of sunshine on your cheeks and the soft freshness of a cool breeze on your neck. It's effortless, comfortable, quietly rhythmic. Without artifice, without maquillage. And it's beautiful. (TC)"

Decanter

D 94

"Toasty and yeasty aromas dominate on the first nose, with swirling smoky intrigue. It's full and rich on the tongue, with grilled brioche and creamy intensity paired with bruised apple skin and mashed apple flesh. Custard and viennoiserie characters give weight and body, while the finish perks up with bitter nut skin and greengage freshness. This is a Brut NV to stock up on, as the complexity is impressive for the price. An all-round winner."

Champagne

Champagne boasts some of the world’s greatest luxury brands with Krug, Cristal and, of course, Dom Perignon. But it’s also home to hundreds of small dynamic producers—farmers who grow their own grapes (often organically) and make (often with natural methods) tiny amounts of pure and absolutely delicious wine that reflect the individual personalities of their villages and terroirs. Toast with these wines, for sure. But also treat them like the great wines they are: taste, drink, explore!
